Stiga Cybershape Carbon

The STIGA Cybershape Carbon is a groundbreaking offensive blade featuring a patent-pending hexagonal shape that increases the optimal hitting area by 11% for shakehand players compared to traditional blades. It utilizes STIGA's CCF (Close Core Fiber) technology, where a high-quality German-made carbon fiber composite layer sits directly on the wood core, providing a unique blend of explosive speed and improved control with a softer touch. The 5+2 ply construction (5 wood + 2 carbon) with a Black Koto surface delivers a crisp, direct feel. Weighing approximately 85 grams (±5g), the blade is well-balanced despite its larger surface area. The innovative shape places the sweet spot higher on the blade face, allowing more power in top-half strokes without sacrificing control, while the six corners offer versatile spin serving options. Vibration tests with KTH Royal Institute of Technology confirmed a larger sweet spot and more linear frequency response, resulting in a unique playing sensation. Ideal for top-level offensive players seeking maximum performance with exceptional forgiveness, the Cybershape Carbon is ITTF-approved and available with or without STIGA's Custom Weight Technology (CWT) for fine-tuned balance adjustment.
